That thing can't be right, I haven't seen Harang hit 90 yet, thoughts?

It's always 3-5 MPH slower than other ballparks. It could be that that's the real speed. Some teams like to make it seem like their pitcher is pitching faster than he actually is.

If thats the case Cueto was throwing 101 MPH the other day:)

To prove my point, the radar had Cordero throwing 94-95 today. Now I know that he probably isn't throwing 100, but he is known for throwing in the high 90s.

So your saying Cueto was throwing 101 ???

So your saying Cueto was throwing 101 ???No, I'm not. I'm saying that over the past couple years, the GABP radar gun has been off compared to other places. I would say that Cueto probably was throwing 98 at most.

I don't think Cueto is throwing it up there at 97-99 he pitches at 94- 96 touching 97 so I would say that the radar is about right.
